Greetings team, I finally pulled the trigger on a MK XVIII (from mdgrwl). I know I am going to want strap options for it, but am not having any luck using the IWC strap search program (here: IWC Straps and Bracelets | IWC Schaffhausen )

Is there any way to just order a 20mm fabric strap from IWC? The finder process is kicking my butt.

Thanks folks. Pics when it arrives.

Well team, I searched and came up empty on this topic. Show us your EDC goodies. Feel free to add updated photos as your EDC stash changes:

Here's a funny story (since it turned out ok).

Yesterday I was looking closely at my Avenger II GMT. I've never liked the fit of the spring bars, since it looks like only the very tip of the bar fits into the hole in the lug. In my estimation, most shouldered spring bars are poorly designed. To me it looks like the shoulder is too close to the tip of the bar. I have piles of various sized single, and double shouldered spring bars, and they all look like that to me. When you contrast…

Near Miss

Hey team, my stupidity is someone's gain.

I placed an order of a couple of straps to suit an incoming 1500T Divingstar. The problem is, instead of ordering 21mm width, for some unknown reason I placed the order for 19mm width. The straps are linked below. Each is made with yellow thread.

Anyone with a need for 19mm wide straps, with yellow thread, drop me a line. They are yours. If you aren't particular, they would probably be suitable for any 20mm Divingstar…

Hi team,

If you are looking for well done NATO and single pass straps, with Ti hardware; here is an option: Redux & Co. Ballistic Nylon / Titanium Equipped

These guys opened shop several years ago, but went silent for a while. The first straps they offered were well done, but a bit short for my 7.7" (196mm) wrist. These new straps are longer. I have three on order and will post results when they arrive.

No affiliation or…
